We're sorry to hear you're having troubles with your Hitron modem. If you prefer to use your own router, it is possible to have the modem put into bridge mode which would disable the router function. In order to do that you would need to get in touch with Customer Service. We do also offer the BlueCurve Gateway modem (formerly known as the XB6), but at this point we're not aware if any other hardware options will be available in the future. We will continue to support the Hitron modem in the foreseeable future, which would likely firmware upgrades to address known issues.
